Hmmm... that probably means that UBI isn't any more. Why making a secret out of it when after reading the facts from the past all of us have to believe that UBI still would be the publisher?

;)

I am happy, thank you for the great news!

Hi Oleg...

Do you think that we might expect a "SOW game demo" when you are ready?

and

Has work resumed on the Korean war "add-on" or is that team still working with your crew on the game engine?

It is not probably possible to produce the demo.. Simply no time.
Il-2 demo was born due to fact that we had real additional time. Just remind the hirtory: Ubisoft bought Bluebyte and all dates of release were hanged in air. We had some time to think what to do and decided to make demo, that was unusual. Simply very short complete game. That was very right decision.
Now we have not any additional time like with the case of Il-2.

However, when I had similar question in the past about Forgotten Battles Demo on the conference in England, my answer was very simple: Il-2 (the first) is a demo of Forgotten battles. Now lets think that Il-2 series is demonstration of what we can do... that was in the past. And get the image how we plan develop new series in future step by step using experience of Il-2 development, realistic suggestions of users, etc.
I really think that in future the Sow as a series will be expanding and growing with us and third party.

Does anyone really still think Ubisoft would be publisher? I still thought so in 2007 ... but given their total lack of involvement in 2010 I don't think so :)

I would really like to see 1c publishing it,They are a fantastic company and all the admins are so helpfull on the forum,s.1c FTW:)

Oleg,

thanks for the updates. It's great to have such responses from you.

As we are apparently so close, would it be possible to have some indication of system specs and frame rates? Will our Quad core cpu, 5870's machines explode on lowest detail?

Any chance of comparison screens? Low, mid & High detail?

Many thanks.

I can tell it only when we will have master candidate. Because we still eleminating and optimizing some part of code.

Fair enough, I understand.

worth a shot as you are being particularly verbose today :-)

Thanks for the reply.

Would it be possible to show some night pictures to us? I can't remember that we have seen any night pictures in previous updates.
